Description

This tour takes you to the best two Tiger Parks in India. We start the trip from Delhi and from there, we’ll take you to Ranthambhore National Park.

The next four days are dedicated to exploring Ranthambhore more. We will take you for an afternoon drive in an open safari truck to the park for tiger-tracking and animal viewing. Regardless of animal sightings, there is something magically peaceful and tranquil about a safari journey, the opportunity to be at one with nature, surrounded by beautiful scenery is hard to beat. Along with the scheduled morning and afternoon safaris, you can explore the ancient Ranthambhore Fort on whose name the National Park has been named; Ganesh Temple and the Jogi Mahal which is the home to the country’s second largest Banyan tree, also offers stunning views of the Padam, pond with lilies blooming. A visit to the local village may also be a good option for those interested. Art lovers must also visit the Ranthambhore school of Art for the wildlife paintings created by local artists. The school contributes towards tiger conservation.

After spending nights in Ranthambhore, we’ll take you to Agra to visit world famous Taj Mahal. Next day, we’ll take an overnight train to Katni to reach Bandhavgarh National Park

A great National Park to sight the revered but endangered Tigers among other mammals and birds. A beautiful drive from Jabalpur with lovely views of rural Madhya Pradesh, you get to see a glimpse of typical central Indian flora, vistas, architecture and way of living. It is a perfect start to the adventure ahead. Serenity will seep into you as you check into Monsoon Forest, a unique eco-lodge with luxury tents and cottages and indigenous central Indian mud house styled architecture. With beautiful grasslands, views of the forest and the Bandhavgarh Fort in the distance, it’s an ideal base to explore the magic of tiger spotting. Be prepared to have a fabulous stay as they go out of their way to make your stay most memorable. Special romantic dinners and traditional massages are worth indulging at this resort.

Bandhavgarh is uniquely famous as a forest offering best tiger sightings. The density of the tiger population at Bandhavgarh is one of the highest known in India. It offers more than 22 species of mammals and 250 species of birds. You can see the Leopard, Spotted Deer, Sambar, Barking Deer, Blue Bull, Indian Gazelle, Hyena, Jackal, Wild boar, Sloth Bear, Common Langurs, Rhesus Monkey etc. For those interested, a local village-visit or a trip with our trained local guides to the ancient temple ruins at the 2000-year-old Bandhavgarh fort is also a great option.

After spending 05 nights in Bandhavgarh, we'll transfer you to Jabalpur airport to connect domestic flight back to Delhi and will spend one night in Delhi. Next morning you will be transferred to Delhi airport to connect flight back to home with best trip memories.
